ISR Self-Rescue™ Swim Lessons

Our student’s well-being and safety are ALWAYS our number one priority. ISR lessons are quite demanding, both mentally and physically, and we never want to over-fatigue or exhaust our students. No one goes back to the gym after a brutal leg day, am I right? Also, we want to ensure retention of skills. As parents, you know all too well how short your little’s attention span can be, and young children attain skills best within the first 10 minutes of an activity.

ISR is the product of over 50 years of ongoing research. Rather than blowing bubbles and singing songs, our primary focus is ensuring that each student becomes an aquatic problem solver able to survive in the event of an aquatic emergency. We provide real-life situations, such as using skills while fully clothed, to ensure students are prepared for a real-life drowning scenario.

ISR’s team of pediatric doctors and nurses review each student’s medical history prior to lessons beginning, to provide guidance to your instructor about how to deliver the safest and most effective lesson for the child and their individual needs. It’s our job to not only provide every child with ISR self-rescue skills, but to provide those skills in the safest way possible. Infant Swimming Resource complies with all federal and state laws and regulations and does not unlawfully discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, age, religion, or disability. It is the policy of ISR to provide reasonable accommodations to its differently abled applicants and students, with the provision of appropriate documentation of the need for the accommodation.

Absolutely not. Every child can learn self-rescue and swimming skills. Your instructor’s job is to determine the best way to communicate the information (both verbally and through sensorimotor prompts) so that it makes sense to the child. Each lesson is tailored to exactly where your child is in the learning process, ensuring that they experience success in every lesson.
